Tips for Maintaining Your Hair Extensions

With the myriad of weaves and extensions of various styles available these days, Brazilian hair, for one, can make for an excellent long-hair look without much of a styling effort. Nevertheless, you should know how to maintain and clean your Brazilian hair extensions so they don’t get worn (or torn) and serve you for a long time.
Look for a stylist whom you can trust to be efficient and reliable in his or her craft, and consult him or her about maintaining your new extensions. Make sure that you ask about which products can be used on your hair as well since some hair treatments that you use might be damage your extensions.
You can style your hair pretty much any way you like--as long as you steer clear of volumizing products. These volumizing treatments can cause your hair cuticles to lift on the extensions, causing your new hair to fall out. You also shouldn’t apply heat too close to the bonds, lest they melt, mess up your hair, and essentially ruin your new extensions.

Whenever brushing your hair for styling, use a smooth styling comb or, if possible, a looper brush. Brush on a downward motion, starting at the ends while slowly working your way up. Make sure that you remove any tangles as these could damage your extensions.
